An episode of "Uninterrupted The Shop" featuring Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, won't air after the rapper apparently used "more hate speech" and "dangerous stereotypes." "The Shop" is executive produced by Maverick Carter and NBA star LeBron James.The producers decided against airing the episode, which was taped on Monday, or revealing West's comments. "Yesterday we taped an episode of ‘The Shop’ with Kanye West.
Kanye was booked weeks ago and, after talking to Kanye directly the day before we taped, I believed he was capable of a respectful discussion and he was ready to address all his recent comments," Carter said in a statement obtained by The Hollywood Reporter. "Unfortunately, he used ‘The Shop’ to reiterate more hate speech and extremely dangerous stereotypes." Sources told THR that James was not present during the taped conversation.
Carter emphasized that the YouTube show will promote "thoughtful discourse" and "differing opinions," but not "hate." A podcast episode recorded with Kanye West will not be aired after the rapper used "more hate speech," the producer claimed.The episode was taped on Monday. (Fox News) "We have made the decision not to air this episode or any of Kanye’s remarks," he continued. "While ‘The Shop’ embraces thoughtful discourse and differing opinions, we have zero tolerance for hate speech of any kind and will never allow our channels to be used to promote hate.
I take full responsibility for believing Kanye wanted a different conversation and apologize to our guests and crew. Hate speech should never have an audience." Carter's statement referenced West's recent antisemitic comments.
